I would like to confirm this does not affect Discover U's remote learning plans, which began today, and will continue through the end of the school year. Please note that all planned activities and events throughout the end of the school year are now canceled. We know there are a multitude of questions that you have regarding cancelations and the rest of the year. We will follow-up with details and answers to your questions as soon as plans are finalized.Our free meal program for children 18 and under will continue, and we invite you and any other community members with children to take advantage of it. Grab-and-Go breakfast and lunch service takes place Monday-Friday from 8am to 9am for the remainder of this week. Starting on April 6th, we will be serving Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 8am to 9am providing two days worth of meals on Monday and Wednesday and three days of meals on Friday. While we are sad that we must end the school year remotely, we are proud that education will not only continue, but will also be meaningful and engaging at Discover U during this challenging time.Please continue to join us in taking proper actions to help stop the spread of Coronavirus. We will continue to bring you additional updates as we learn the impact of this change.

Hello Parents,Today we posted a survey link on all social media, our website, and sent it out through School Messenger. The purpose of the survey is to gather numbers for breakfasts, lunches, and technology needs. If you have not done so already, please take the survey. This will assist us in planning and preparations for meals and assignments for your children. Next week, we will have a Grab and Go for breakfast and lunch from 8:00-9:00 am, Monday - Friday. Parents can drive through the drop-off/pick-up lane and grab the meals for any child under the age of 18 for the day.

Dear Discover U Families,​In accordance with orders from Arizona’s Governor Doug Ducey, our campus will be closed to students March 16-27 in an effort to minimize the spread of COVID-19 (Coronavirus).

We care deeply about how this decision impacts our students and families. We have prepared contingency plans to meet the needs of our students, providing meals each day for those who rely on our campuses for breakfast and lunch. And, should the situation change, resulting in a need for closure beyond March 27, we are working on plans to deliver instruction remotely, so that your child continues to receive academic instruction and support.

Together, we will face the challenges this pandemic brings with grit and perseverance. And, together, we will emerge stronger than ever.

In the meantime, please know we are here to support you and your child. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions or concerns you have. My email is: Dana.Stokes@LeonaGroup.com. You can reach me by phone at 623-974-4827.
